About
Monkey Shoulder Smokey Monkey is an innovative blended malt whisky from Scotland, cherished by both bartenders and whisky enthusiasts. This whisky was crafted to add a smoky dimension to cocktails without the complexity of Islay peat. Instead, it uses subtle Highland peat, resulting in a unique flavor profile that is both accessible and versatile. On the nose, you'll find notes of honeydew melon and flamed orange peel, with a hint of bacon crisps. The palate reveals sweet vanilla, peppery citrus, and an earthy peat smoke. This blend is perfect for cocktail mixing but also serves as a smooth introduction to peated whiskies for those new to the experience. Serve Smokey Monkey in a classic cocktail like a Penicillin, where its smoky and sweet notes harmonize beautifully with lemon and ginger.
